I need help on finding movies...

[go2net]

Hi,

We're Filipino teachers in an international school in Thailand, and we're looking for DVDs of classics like "Oro, Plata, Mata" and any Lino Brocka film. English subtitles will be nice so we can show the films to our fellow teachers from US, Australia, Canada, India, Taiwan, etc.

A friend is going home for the New Year, so we'd appreciate it if anyone can recommend a DVD store in Metro Manila where we can buy these. Region 3 is okay.

Welcome to Pinoy DVD, go2net

Region 3 Pinoy films are available at Astrovision that have numerous branches in metro manila malls like SM and Robinsons.
I don't really know if the films you mentioned are available but you can jsut ask your friend to check.

Hi go2net.  Welcome to PinoyDVD!

As far as I know, there is only one Lino Brocka film on DVD so far and it's the film "Macho Dancer".  I don't know if this title would be appropriate to your target audience though.

At any rate, it's in Region 1 and available online (just click the link above).  I just don't know if this title is being sold locally.

If you want to know the other Filipino films available on DVD, kindly visit the "Pinoy DVDs " section of the forum.  

Hope this helps

Welcome to PinoyDVD - FanofOldFilMovies!  

You can check out these thread: Complete List Of Pinoy Movies on DVD
Upcoming Pinoy DVD releases for the titles you are looking for in DVD format.  

As for the other formats like VHS and VCD, you can check out AStroVision if it available there.  

Hope this helps.

guys, i want to find a DVD/VCD/VHS of Dear Heart first movie of Sharon Cuneta and Gabby Concepcion.

I have been looking for this film for the longest time, mukhang VIVA does not own the rights to this movie, i wonder who does.  

Bet a lot of die hard Sharonians are also looking for this movie.

The master negative of Dear Heart is badly damaged.  Hinanap ko rin ito, nasa bodega sya ng Premiere.

[indski]

does any1 here know if GAYUMA-Amanda Page Movie is available on dvd.....

[yamota]

The master negative of Dear Heart is badly damaged.  Hinanap ko rin ito, nasa bodega sya ng Premiere.

why doesn't the filipino movie industry take steps to preserve all our old films? Letting those old movies rot in some bodega is somewhat like letting a wondeful visual record of philippine history rot; why?

[johndoe]

simply because there is no organization or gruop to do that kind of thing...sayang nga...mdaming great movies din ang filipino movie industry..

its expensive to transfer all movies into the more updated mediums of media.... they tried it in Sampaguita i think..

Hindi pa ba lumabas sa DVD ang pelikula ni FPJ na "Alamat ng Lawin" [tama ba ang title?]

Hindi pa ba lumabas sa DVD ang pelikula ni FPJ na "Alamat ng Lawin" [tama ba ang title?]

is this the one w/c is in the 70's? the only filipino movie ever nominated for a foreign film at the oscars?

[barrid]

I believe, this was shown last December during the film festival.

To all readers,

I've been searching for vcd/dvd copy of Dolphy's old movies, like Ibong Adarna, Captain Barbel, Pacifica Falayfay, etc. when i found this site. Hope you can help me, only these movies gave me a really stomach aching laughter. Thanks,

maybe you were referring to Agila. but i think it was not nominated because i am sure that no Filipino movie has been nominated before

Bro wedge, I haven't seen these movies yet on Astrovision in dvd format, but I saw several weeks ago babae sa bubungang lata on vcd. Sorry hindi ko na maalala kung ano branch.

[wedge]

Thanks bro keating  

Ok na din siguro VCD (mas tipid). But then, I think I'll try to call Astrovision to inquire.

Guys, sometime last year I saw the first scorpio nights being sold in vcd format in astrovision robinsons galeria - I haven't seen it since.  I feel quite bad about not getting it then because now that i'm looking for it, I can't find it.  Does anyone have any info on this release?

Thanks!

It's also available on dvd unfortunately the version of Scorpio Nights on both the dvd & vcd is not the complete version of the film. It was a more sanitized version of the movie without the gratituous full frontal nudity courtesy of Daniel Fernando & Orestes Ojeda. I do own the uncut version on vhs & also the dvd.

There were two released DVD format from Regal

One was the more tame version which is sold in Philippine Market

and the Uncut One which is sold in International Market.


Try searching the clearance section of vcds (Im not talking about Atrovision Stores, try the Video City outlets in SM Malls).. sometimes they have it stocked there....

Has "Hihintayin Kita Sa Langit" with Dawn Zulueta and Richard Gomez been released in any format? What about "Sister Stella L" with Vilma Santos?

[marj]

Both have been released on VHS.
